    Navigating Jazz: Music, Place, and New Orleans by Sarah Ezekiel Suhadolnik A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Musicology) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Charles Hiroshi Garrett, Chair Professor David Ake, University of Miami Associate Professor Stephen Berrey Associate Professor Christi-Anne Castro Associate Professor Mark Clague © Sarah Ezekiel Suhadolnik 2016 DEDICATION To Jarvis P. Chuckles, an amalgamation of all those who made this project possible. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My dissertation was made possible by fellowship support conferred by the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities, as well as ample teaching opportunities provided by the Musicology Department and the Residential College. I am also grateful to my department, Rackham, the Institute, and the UM Sweetland Writing Center for supporting my work through various travel, research, and writing grants. This additional support financed much of the archival research for this project, provided for several national and international conference presentations, and allowed me to participate in the 2015 Rackham/Sweetland Writing Center Summer Dissertation Writing Institute. I also remain indebted to all those who helped me reach this point, including my supervisors at the Hatcher Graduate Library, the Music Library, the Children’s Center, and the Music of the United States of America Critical Edition Series. I thank them for their patience, assistance, and support at a critical moment in my graduate career. This project could not have been completed without the assistance of Bruce Boyd Raeburn and his staff at Tulane University’s William Ransom Hogan Jazz Archive of New Orleans Jazz, and the staff of the Historic New Orleans Collection.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions by Ned Hémard
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Jazz Fest Family Ties The 46th annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival came to a close Sunday, May 3, 2015, with attendance figures the largest since before Hurricane Katrina. The festival's producers approximated the crowds at 460,000, an increase of 25,000 from the previous year. Jazz Fest even had to shut down its stages an hour early on the first Friday of the Fest (April 24) due to severe weather. Big name acts like Elton John, The Who, Jimmy Buffett, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga and “The Killer,” Jerry Lee Lewis, performed this year. Saturday (May 2) had three highly popular headliners: On the Congo Square Stage was Clifford Joseph Harris, Jr., aka T.I., American rapper, record producer and actor. Elton John hit the Acura Stage and former London street busker Ed Sheeran wowed the crowds from the Gentilly Stage (opening with his two hits, “I’m a Mess” and “Lego House”). Great music and sublime weather on a Saturday made for a fantastic day at the Fair Grounds. Dr. John and Davell Crawford at Jazz Fest Other crowd favorites played the Fest, too, such as Steve Winwood, the indomitable O’Jays and Reggae icon Jimmy Cliff. Local faves were on hand to please, as well, such as Irma Thomas, The Meters and Dr. John. And on Sunday, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue closed the Acura Stage to a greater audience than the year before. Shorty’s cousin, Glen David Andrews was back this year and Davell Crawford presented a wonderful tribute to Fats Domino, entitled “To Fats with Love.” Dr.
